Side by Side Drivers from Daleville to Fincastle.

So it appears that the driving infection of the metropolitan areas of Virginia has spread to Botetourt County. We had the unfortunate experience of returning from the new Harry Potter movie at around 6 pm tonight.  When we got off the interstate at exit 150, traffic was pretty heavy.  Even on 81 it was a little thick.  The usual offenders were in the left lane, but we made it in pretty good time.

The ride from I81 to Rt. 779 was the usual cluster f**k of idiots in both lanes.  When we got to the stoplight, the left turn lane was green.  This effectively ruined the usual strategy of letting the turning traffic scrape off the slowpokes in the left lane.  So here we go from Daleville to Fincastle, 8 miles of slowpoke hell.  I was able to work my way up to the idiot in the old pickup that was driving next to the same car in the left lane for 8 miles with about 100 cars behind him and tried to work past him but he won the asshole of the day award!  I really worry that some of these guys are going to do this to the wrong gang member, drug dealer or mafia don and get a real lesson in manners!  I don't approve of that, but that result would not surprise me!  Someone just shot their TV the other day because Sarah Palin's daughter won dancing with the stars or something.

I guess this guy can't get it up and this is the only way he can screw someone.  Might have been Obama's brother the way he was slowing down the local economy!  Maybe he has vehicle envy since his truck looked like a real POS.  If he just went the speed limit he could do a couple of more hours of work a week and perhaps afford a new one.

We will be on the lookout for this particular vehicle and see if we can determine what the exact brain damage is to this individual and why they feel a need to control other vehicles.

Non-pint "pint" Glasses

Some bars serve beer in "shaker" glasses. They look just like pint glasses but have a thicker bottom. They only hold 14 oz max and usually only have about 12 oz in them. Conversely, some establishments serve their beer in an Imperial Pint. These hold 18 oz so even with a nice head you get at least 16oz i.e. a pint. A great way to find out is to order a draft and then order a 12 oz bottled beer for your second one. Pour it in your glass from the draft and note how full it is. Remember that even a real pint glass holds a lot at the top since it's the widest portion of the glass.

Facebook Changes

Facebook is pretty complicated to begin with then they change the entire format every 3 months or so! When they do, they do it gradually so if you are one of the first ones, other people thing you are crazy. If you are one of the later ones, you think everyone else is crazy. It's a no win situation. Guess we are all crazy!
